Wow--there were so many good ideas on the California Curriculum Connections wiki that I was a little hard-pressed to come up with something meaningful to contribute. However, here was my post, under "Wikis":
Idea #37 - Many of the teachers at my school loop, or have the same group of students for one grade and again for the next grade the following year. Looping has some advantages; one of them is that the students develop a strong bond with each other. A class wiki could be set up to keep students in touch during the summer vacation. Kids could report on their travels, activities, and the books they have been reading and want to recommend to others.
I think wikis are at their best when the input solicited is creative, rather than factual. Reliability does not come into question so much. Using a wiki as a source of good ideas is terrific.
